Recovered at portsro,,tb

The horse and carriage stolen from the sta
BILE of Ansel G. Sawyer in this city, were re-
covered at Portsmouth, New Hampshire
Saturday morning Early Saturday fore
noon the young man who hired the team of
Mr.. Sawyer, accompanied by another fellow
of about the same ge.drovs the stolen prop
erty into Portsmouth livery stable and be-
gan negotiations with the proprietor for the
sale of the horse and carriage. After long
efforts, the thieves induced the stable keeper
to advance fifteer dollars on the team and
Immediately took the noon train for Boston.
The train had not left the depot when the
Portsmouth city marshal, who had received
one of the published descriptions issued by
Detective True, inquired of the stable keep
er if he had such team. The officer wasIput
in possession of the facts and telegraphed
after the thieves, but they escaped by leaving
the train at a way station before the conduc-
tor received the despatch addressed to him.
Mr.. Sawyer was notified by telegraph of the
recovery of the team and went to Portsmouth
for 1t. arriving home yesterday afternoon.
The city marshal of Portsmouth got the re-
ward. and the stable keeper, who lost his fif-
teen dollars, will probably be careful about
advancing money on teams in the future.
